9 1/2 Month Appointment

Just had Ella's 9 month appointment (she is actually about 9 1/2 months now).  Here are her new percentiles:

Height:  30 inches (97%)
Weight:  20 pounds 9.5 ounces (71%)
Head:  17.64" (66%)

She also had her first blood draw to check iron levels and lead exposure.  It was interesting how she started to pull away and wince a bit right before the needle went in, as it she was anticipating the pain.  Considering she has never experienced a blood draw before, I found it quite amazing that she could sense what was coming!  She cried for a bit, but overall, seemed to handle it pretty well!
